About Athens

Athens is the capital of Europe, with a very long rich history, from the Neolithic time. Over the years, many conquerors occupied Athens and built massive monuments. In 1834 it became the capital of Modern Greek. It is today, the modern metropolis with unchallenged charm.

A massive part of the town is Europe’s largest 3 kilometer pedestrian area that has been converted to trails and areas of historic architecture and sites around the Acropolis.

Due to the great morphology, this causes Athens to have plenty of places where you can admire stunning panoramic scenes and views of Athens. Whether it is Romantic or just serene, let yourself be moved by the Athenian landscape as seen from high above. The skyline views are truly a treasure for the eyes.

In the south there are suburbs which are located on the coast of the Saronic Coastline, a recreational area is being built and the suburb also comprises an existing recreational and sports facility. There are many opportunities to take long walks along the coastline, here you will also find many beautifully organized and rate free public access beaches, large retail shopping centers and some of Athens best nightclubs.

Around Athens and the Attica areas, you will find many shops and accommodations of a level of high standard, with modern methods of public transportation, and of course there is many choices for opportunities to shop, fine dining and Greek nightlife, impeccable service but above all the Greek hospitality and warmth of its residents. At the end of the day, Athens fascinates everyone who visits or lives here, during every season and time of year.

October is a great month to visits, as is all year long, and although September has summer like temps, in October the weather starts to cool of quite a bit, particularly at night. The average temp is 19°C (66°F). So it might require some long sleeve shirts or a light jacket at night.
